➢ Volunteering as an Advocate with RCCCNM is not for everyone. As a Hotline Crisis Advocate, you need to focus your attention on others and their crisis and must have a firm grasp on your own emotions.
➢ Despite the challenges, it is a truly rewarding opportunity. Your effort is rewarded by knowing that you have helped someone through a difficult time and that you made a positive impact in somebody’s life.
➢ RCCCNM could not offer immediate hotline crisis intervention, support, and advocacy 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, without our dedicated Volunteer Advocates.
We hope that you will consider joining our team!
